With the Freeride Festival in Kappl just around the corner, we're naturally keeping a very close eye on the weather charts. And they are starting to look interesting. The latest weather models are showing a possible snowfall in the Alps towards the weekend. Some calculations even show 10 to 25 centimeters of fresh snow for Kappl between Saturday and Sunday.
Possible snow dump just in time
That would, of course, be perfect for the festival. A fresh layer of snow can significantly improve conditions in the freeride terrain around Kappl in a short time. Especially after a few dry days, a new dump could be exactly what the mountains need.
Weather models not yet fully in agreement
However, it is not yet entirely certain whether this snow will actually materialize. The various weather models are not yet fully in agreement. While some runs clearly show a fresh layer of snow in Kappl, other calculations indicate a somewhat lesser amount of precipitation. The coming days will therefore be decisive for what this snow forecast for Kappl will look like.
Good prospects for powder snow
What is positive, in any case, is that temperatures in Kappl remain low. This means that anything that falls will likely remain light and dry, precisely the powder snow that freeriders are hoping for.
Will Kappl get that fresh layer of snow?
The big question remains: will Kappl get that fresh layer of snow this weekend?
We will certainly continue to follow the weather forecasts for Kappl, will you?
See you soon in Kappl, hopefully with a fresh layer of snow!
